Blandy's Bual Vintage 1966 Magnum Madeira Wine

5/ 5

<p>On tasting, Colheita Bual 2005 displays a rich amber-gold colour with reflections of old gold. Aromas are complex and mature, with dried fruits, caramel, toasted nuts and hints of orange peel. The palate is rich and luscious but balanced by vibrant acidity; flavours of fig, honey, and walnut linger in a long finish. With its established vintage character, this Madeira is wonderful as an after-dinner wine or paired with desserts, nuts or cheese.</p>

<p></p><p>The founders of D’Oliveiras were visionaries that saw the true value of Madeira Wine: its ability to improve over time. Therefore they started storing as much Madeira Wine as possible, letting it slowly mature inside the barrels for future generations to be able to enjoy it further. For that reason, D’Oliveiras is the only Madeira Wine company that owns Madeira Wine bottles and Barrels from as far as the 1850’s that can still be commercially purchased.</p>

After his death in 1912, a partnership was established between his two sons, Francisco Eduardo and Joaquim Henriques, which gave rise to the name Henriques &amp; Henriques .<br />From the earliest times, Henriques &amp; Henriques occupied a prominent place in viticulture and the art of making wine. In 1913 the family interests were constituted in a company of the family that, in 1925, began its activity like exporter of its wines to the detriment of the local supply to other exporters</p>
